Nothing. I keep my brickfilms PG-13, but even with my live-action stuff (most of which I haven't put online) which delves a bit into horror and can be a little bloody, I wouldn't think twice about putting here, though I would put a warning about the content if I thought it could be found offensive. I can understand why others might feel differently, though.

I don't think a filmmaker should have anything to feel ashamed of or to apologise for unless they set out to offend in the first place. If you do that, then you're divisive and you stink.

I think that, even with "failed" brickfilms, there's still something that can be learned from them. - Weather it's picking out the good parts and ideas, and using that as inspiration for your own projects, or it's the bad parts, that you remember not to do; everything has something that will help other brickfilmers.

Besides, what are brickfilms made for? ... what are movies made for? - Entertainment. The only reason I wouldn't upload a video to both youtube and BiM is if I didn't think that it would entertain anybody. - And that's a slap in the face to the days/weeks/months it took to film the brickfilm in the first place.

However, I could understand that, if you've just joined BiM, or are tempted to "mass upload" all of your videos at once, (as many newcomers do) then I could understand from refraining from uploading/linking for that reason. But, besides that, I want to upload all of my videos, new or old, released or unreleased, to youtube and BiM someday, so that my films can do what they were meant to do - entertain.

I see no shame in showing off one's earliest work. A few years ago I uploaded my earliest brickfilms that I made with LEGO Studios, which can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P … T-xDDsLa7z

Sure there are some really bad parts, but I still remember them fondly, and it's fun to see how far I've come.

Sorry, but I can't share them on BiM.
In all seriousness though, the only things I haven't uploaded are my tests...which was all I did for about 2-3 years.

Behind the Scenes

The reason I didn't upload my first brickfilms to BiM was because they were utter garbage.  I "animated", if you can even call it that, my films with my ipod touch, by taking pictures, then I uploaded them to my computer and strung them together on WMM, my first few films ran at about 1 FPS.  Later, I made the picture length smaller and my films ran at about three frames per second.  If you think that sounds bad enough, I animated my films before sound recording, so there are lots of places where sound cuts out too late or too soon.  Not to mention any sound effects or music used I either mimicked with my voice, or recorded directly from the computer.  Heck, I didn't even write my scripts down, I just pictured the story in my mind.  That obviously didn't lead to anything good.  However, like some of you have been saying, I like to look back at my older films to see how far I have come as a brick filmer.  Am I really that good now?  Heck, no!  Am I better than I was two years ago?  Definitely!
